Sound quality with bass How good is the bass on these headphones? I love heavier bass when listening to music, so I was wondering mostly the sound quality of the headphones with bass.

The bass on them is actually really awesome.. I noticed with mine that the cord that you plug into the headphone jack didn't last a super long time but I just use blue tooth and they are awesome.

I am very happy with the level of bass these headphones provide. It could be that for what you want it may not be enough, however. Based on all the headphones I have tried, these were the best ones within their price range.

Yes, as a longtime audiophile I have no problem recommending these headphones. The dynamic response of these headphones seem quite good, especially considering their price. Understand however that the bass response of many expensive high-end headphones leave something to be desired, but these headphones have discrete bass amplification and are intended for listeners who appreciate a better bass response along with a good dynamic range. I originally bought these for gaming and because they fold up and fit nicely into my backpack, but quickly realized their sound quality also made them a good choice for listening to music. Hope this helps. Yes, as a longtime audiophile I have no problem recommending these headphones. The dynamic response of these headphones seem quite good, especially considering their price.

is that a question or a review? I have two of these and they work great. Your issue with the bass is either your headphones or the source. The PM351 is a great unit. Something is wrong at your source.

I think they have plenty of bass. Guess it depends on what you're listening to. Hard rock/heavy metal sounds great. But if you're listening to (c)rap and want the distortion, maybe not for you.

It really depends on the source and equalizer setting. I think the bass is great for such portable, comfortable headphones. I wear them over my cap for eight hours five days a week.

Well its by the official beats seller page, but i ask you to ask your self are theres headphones the best headphones for you? Because the sound like beats, not that thats a bad thing if you only listen to rap and other bass heavy music. If your going to listening to anything else these are not the head phones for you, my best suggestion (based on what have used and own) the ath m50x or ath m70x are what i use for every thing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3yoAj-PRsZ0

The bass is good. The bad is Not over powering the music you listen to. The week before I bought mine. I listened to some beats and it was too much bass can't hear anything else. To loud. SMS headphones are durable. I feel that they will survive.

They have in my opinion a good amount of bass w/ out amplifier. Now with an amplifier these headphones get rediculously loud and the bass does get deeper. Any amp would work even pocket one. These headphones do leak a lot! Seriously they leak a lot! But they do sound great. So honestly you won't be getting the price tag sound with out an amplifier.

These headphones have adequate bass, but the sound is well balanced. So if you're looking for something that blasts out heavy bass, you may want to buy a model for which the reviews say they have big bass sound.

I find the bass to be quite good, in terms of both quantity and quality. It's full and well controlled, and in good balance with highs and mids, but not overly boomy. It may not satisfy you if you're a die-hard bass head (read: Beats), or prefer a pronounced V-shaped sound signature, but otherwise I think it'll do fine with house music and EDM.

my shure headphones seem to be not very bassy at all... anyone else feel that way? I'm not a bass freak or anything I love highs and mids but the se535's seem to have less bass than my old se215's... Seems a bit strange

I wouldn't say these headphones are particularly bassy. I feel like they simply provide a clearer listening experience than some others I've tried, but in my experience they don't tend to amplify any one aspect or another of music.

Whoa! I originally wrote that I could not hear any bass at all, but I found you have to insert them all the way into the ear to hear bass. And then you get the finger in your ear effect where you can also hear body sounds and when the wires move against your clothes. But I guess this is common throughout the earbud class of headphones.

I have used these for several gigs and the sound seems to be very good if you get the right buds to fit your ears. There are several different kinds that come with the headphones, so choose wisely. I'm a bass player and I'm quite please with the bass sound that I have for these.

I think it's tough to get truly good bass from a 4" speaker. There's bass, but it isn't amazing. For me, still a major improvement over the worn out stock 4" speakers I replaced.
